Low $/W, very fast installation

I received bids from 5 local installers in September 2019. I asked all to quote the same thing: SE5000H inverter, LG335 x 16 panels. Prices ranged from $5/W to $2.80/W. Promised install dates ranged from weeks after signing to half a year (which would push me into 2020 and lose 4% of the tax credit). Slingshot Power and one other provider were able to hit the $2.80/W target, but Slingshot also promised 1-2 week installation, so I went with them. In reality, they had the system installed in under 2 weeks. City inspection took another 2 weeks (not sure why so slow, but just got that approved yesterday), and PGE approval is still in process. So they met my fast and low price target. They also did some extra work to ensure that some holes left in my roof from a prior pool solar installation were well covered and would not leak. The work crews really were great and were willing to go beyond and meet any request I made as the work progressed. I think the company is under new management as of a year or so ago, so that might be why my experience was much better that some older reviews indicate.

Latest bad review thumbs down

Poor Customer Service!

I wish I had never gone with this company. Their customer service is extremely poor. Every time when I need any help, it takes me months to get their attention. They rarely reply to the text messages or emails, and they don't answer their phone calls either. My one of the solar panels is down since Feb 2020, which they spouse to be monitoring, but I found out about this panel in October 2020 and I called them to place my service request. After 4 months, they still haven't fixed my issue yet. I got very upset after I found out that they also misled me during the initial consultation. Slingshot sales rep convinced me to pay $3500 to bring my interest rate down, which I later came to find out that it was a total lie after I spoke with my solar lender. Please do your own research before you decide to go with this company.
